Keeping our Kids Safe

The other night a friend of mine put out a cry for help on Facebook on ideas for what she should do in regards to her young son (age 12) who while on his personal device was getting pictures of a young woman in a very compromising position. Her son didn't ask for the pictures to be sent to him and she wasn't sure how to deal with the situation.  Apparently, one very popular social media sight allows you to send pictures, but than just like that it is difficult to track the pictures back to the original individual.  I have to be honest I am not familiar with how that form of social media works because I am not on that forum and my children are not on that forum, but as a mom I could feel her stress and pain. I am not mentioning the particular social media venue because I don't want to claim something to be true that may not be the case and I don't want to be held responsible for liable. 
It used to be that we were safe in our own homes and the predators were on the outside, but today it is really easy for predators to gain access into our homes.  We invite them in every day, and sadly our children are their biggest targets because they are the weakest.  What is a mom to do?  I am certainly no expert on the matter; however, with five of my six children using devices I have a few ideas for a few of you out there who are just entering the arena.  1) Whether it be a computer, ipad, phone, or tablet don't allow your children to use them in their bedrooms. Restrict their use to public area of the home.  This way your kids no you are watching them.  I can hear the question being ask, but what about their phones?  Yes, phones are different in that if we have decided to give our child a phone we most likely have given it to them so they can be contacted when they are away from us.  Each family is different in terms of what age they think is an acceptable age for a phone. We gave our oldest son a phone when he was 13 and staying after school for activities.  We wanted to be able to reach him at all times.  Prior to giving our son a phone we had a discussion about what our rules were  and what would happen if the rules were broken.  Believe me they will probably break the rules and this is where you need to be tough as a parent by taking away the phone.  They are banking on you not following through because they know our desire to be able to reach them 24/7 is often greater than the consequence.  Not sure where to begin or what rules are fair than the website The Smart Talk  will help you open the conversation and decide what is fair 2) you control all the passwords
